POKEN: LEADING THE WAY FOR FASHIONABLE TECHNOLOGY!

Hello to all my dear readers,


I hope you are having an amazing week so far! I've been up to my ears in the Single design studio, spending day and night sketching new designs, working with patterns and textiles, and just letting my inspiration flow. Fall is going to be a fantastic collection!


In addition to the runway looks that the hottest, most in-demand models strut down the various catwalks of the world's fashion capitals, there are other fashion trends besides simple the clothes that have caught my eye recently. One of these trends is the fusion of technology and fashion, which I absolutely love!


A hot new technology called Poken is leading the pack when it comes to this trend... they make staying connected oh-so-chic! I pride myself in staying ahead of the game when it comes to what's next in the fashion industry, and must admit, Poken is DEFINITELY going to be the next big thing. Think of it as a stylish way to sync all of the ways that you communicate. It's an adorable keychain-like device that when touched against someone else's Poken device, instantly exchanges tons of information, from email to phone numbers to your Twitter and Facebook info and picture. Soo cool!

My friends at ShopPoken.com came to me for advice on ways that impeccably dressed women can incorporate their device into their look, and I suggested that it can be worn as a fashionable-meets-funky necklace! I love lending my advice to other creative types, and now have found that I can barely put my Poken down. They loved my idea so much they created a Special Edition necklace for the Sundance Film Festival 2010 to be given to celebrities at the Fred Segal Fun event and also at Bravo TV's Main Event Red Carpet Lounge. It will even be available for sale to the public as a limited edition available on www.shoppoken.com! This is definitely the fashion accessory of the future.

My approach in life has been to be a leader and a trendsetter. I love that Poken has this cutting edge technnology that doubles as a trendy fashion accessory. It is the modern approach to functional fashion. I have profiles on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, A Small World and many more and have always believed in the power of networking and social media. This is going to be a huge breakthrough. As they say on Bravo, watch what happens!
